Another gorgeous high tea experience at the Langham. The live harp music put it over the top and the food and service were top-notch. We love being able to stroll the gardens afterwards too.

The food is not worth the price. The choices were random like putting hot jalapeño in the chicken. Or apricot in the bread. I think they need better spices/flavors in their plain food. Use your money to go to a nice restaurant. The service was slow.

Good was good, they had great gluten free options, the piano music was nice but was rather loud. I would’ve liked to sit by the windows but it appeared there was no ramp for wheelchairs for a member of our party so we were sat by the piano which was a bit dark. The service was good however I think there should be more food for the price of each plate. Regardless, we have made it here for the past two years for Christmas and plan to continue every year.

Third year attending the Teddy Bear Tea. First 2 years were great, but it seems to be declining. We went on Christmas Eve morning so maybe since it was the last day they were trying to wrap things up. May be our last year.

Disappointed big time. The grounds are absolutely beautiful. Didn’t understand why it wasn’t set up like a traditional tea - $90 a person inc kids (who got a Paddington bear). 4 finger sandwiches and an array of pastries. For four $72 service charge and then receipt tells you how much to tip! And with validation, parking still $15! Chado Tea House - several locations in LA area is a much better value

The experience was not worth the cost. The tea options were limited, the food was mediocre, lacked appealing decoration, and wasn't tasty considering the price. Coupled with subpar service, I wouldn't recommend this as a holiday season activity

Beautiful venue and wonderful ambiance, but the Christmas tea was a joke especially for the amount you pay. I could have gone to much cheaper tea room and get way more food and more bang for my buck. For $180 the plate of food served was an abomination.
